Who is? We just don't feel as strongly as you do about this problem is all. Its real. It effects 1% of people that rock multiple monitors and 4K or do heavy heavy mods.
So the TDP is a fake? It can actually make use of the full rail Watt and the rail are required for sufficient power? It is playing a huge role in efficiency matters, because thats the spec most users throw at me when it comes to Nvidia but it turns out to be lot of unrealistic TDP numbers, yet you was telling me several times it is barely using more than 150W or whatever.LOL, its not fake. You can modify the bios and raise the voltage. With water I can imagine it.
Also, reference specs are two 6 pins. So its the AIB's that are adding the 8 pins.

The question is if it will become true. Technically i think a 970 is equal to a 980 and the driver may be able to do the trick. I still dunno why Nvidia made such a cut without properly informing the users from the very beginning. Apparently an accident... but i could care less in term the 970 will be running at original advertised 4 GB RAM speed with full allocation. In that term matter would be solved... i would say if they truly gonna fix it, they made their part of the deal and apology is accepted.
Never said it was fake... there is just a lack of understanding on your part. Read Woomack's explanation... though again, reference was 6+6 pin, not 6+8 like he mentions.
Don't worry about it. I really don't want to debate people's stance on the subject. The facts were laid out in the Anand article so for me, debating its importance is a waste of time. I run 1440p on a 970 as well and I could care less because I do not mod anything and outside of cranking things additional to what in game can provide, I can't trip 3.5GB. Others will... just not many people. Does that make it right? Naaa, but it is what it is. We have said what we have to say, and the rubber on my wheels is just about done from spinning in circles already.
i been with amd(ati) all my pc years bought a 750TI last year for my itx machine, i have had way less issues than i have had with my 280x. on a more subjective note it feels alot smoother even at a bit lower frames than the 280x. ontop of that the obvious price / performance ratio, the damn thing trades blows with the titan, and if memory serves me correctly was what like $600+? yeah sounds like u guys got screwed.Don't worry about it.

256 bit. But that isn't the/a problem unless you get to 4K res. You can see even at 1440, the gap between the 290/290x and the 970 is the same. Its not until one gets to 4K/3x1080 that gap starts to shrink which then shows the 256 bit bandwidth difference.

Don't get hung up on nameplate values, but look at the actual performance.
